	I know the 386 works...I once was playing with an Intel 386
board and it didn't, but a dealer told me they use Sota all the time
with no problems.

	What I would like to know is does the Sota 286i work as well?
Gut feeling says yes, the dealer says 'I dunno', and I found one.

	BTW, how does the Sota go in?  The Intel has a forty pin ribbon
cable that goes out to a dummy chip to plug into the 8086 socket, but it
was too sort.  I had to make a longer one (and cannabalize that dummy
chip...they are hard to find it seems).  Does the Sota work the same
way?
